The Aeolian Company was a musical-instrument making firm whose products included player organs, pianos, sheet music, records and phonographs. Founded in 1887, it was at one point the world's largest such firm. During the mid 20th century, it surpassed Kimball to become the largest supplier of pianos in the United States, having contracts with Steinway & Sons due to its Duo-Art system of player pianos. It went out of business in 1985.

  • La Aeolian Company è stata un'azienda statunitense che produceva fin dal 1880 circa strumenti musicali automatici: il primo fu un harmonium che funzionava a dischi di cartone perforati. Dopo questa esperienza l'Aeolian si specializzò in altri innumerevoli strumenti automatici: pianole, orchestrelles (harmonium altamente perfezionati, suonabili sia manualmente grazie alla tastiera, sia con un rullo cartaceo perforato), organi a canne, orchestrion (chiamati così perché cercavano di imitare le orchestre), Pianoforte e altri strumenti. L'Aeolian ha continuato a costruire fino al 1993 con l'ultimo modello di pianola e poi chiuse i battenti. (it)
